Arlington Reservoir Phase II Renovation Project
The Arlington Park and Recreation Commission is excited to announce that phase II of the Reservoir renovation project is underway. The project will be broken up into multiple steps, with step one being the bathhouse renovation. The bathhouse renovation is taking place prior to the 2021 beach season and the contract has already been awarded and work will begin immediately. During this phase a portion of the beach will be closed off, but access to the beach will be available for residents. Step two of the project will take place during the beach season and will include work on the perimeter path and bank stabilization. Step three of the project will take place after the beach season and will include the parking lot/boat ramp, beach area upgrades, playground renovation, and picnic pavilion. The project completion date is estimated to be May of 2022. Steps two and three of the project are currently out to bid with the bids due on March 10th. Updates on the project will be posted on this page.
